    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    What about Overload? Seems good against shielded foes (playing on Hardcore btw). <--oh and lol whoever crazy mod did this, change it back and don't waste my time. I am playing a game that you don't like, boohoohoo, get over it.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    Good thing then that i made the Valiant since i play sniper. What should be the ideal priming/detonating tech power combo?

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    Kotor 2 was the very definition of a rushed cash-in game. Much smaller budget and development time than the original and it showed. But back in the day they at least tried to save appearances. I personally didn't like it much, i remember more stuff from the original than the second one.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    I'd put this on the level of cash-in sequels like Kotor 2 and DA 2. Oddly enough, i am having fun with it so far, probably because of my lowered expectations. Definitely not an overall steaming heap of shit, there is still an ok game worth playing underneath the weird animations, cringey...

    Best way to calibrate two monitors to look the same is to buy a colorimeter, something like an Xrite i1 Display Pro for fuss-free results (a bit expensive though). Or you can buy something cheaper, like a Spyder 5 Express and use the free DisplayCAL software instead.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda - Autism reaches outer space

    Mass Effect: Andromeda better deliver or else Bioware is done as a studio. I mean, last fully awesome game they released was Mass Effect 2 i think? Then we had 1) Dragon Age 2 which was good combat, crap annoying story 2) Mass Effect 3 which was awesome until the worst ending in gaming history...

    Viewing angles aren't as good as IPS, better than TN though. VA's main benefit actually is the superior contrast, this has a 3,000:1 contrast ratio compared to the 1,000:1 for normal TN/IPS screens and it really shows.

    The "better" tech currently for gaming screens are the new Samsung 100/144Hz VA panels. Those seem to be a lottery though as a lot of people have reported various problems. I got this one: C24FG70FQN Monitors - LC24FG70FQNXZA | Samsung US about 10 days ago, luckily problem free and a major step...

    Yeah a jump from 2500k to 6600k should be noticeable, but not huge. I would still wait for next year and get the 10nm chip instead.

    Amazon has some great deals for Corsair keyboards, $50 for K65 '13 models, $70 for Strafes and $85 for K70 '16 models. I picked a K65 on a whim, not really needed but looks like a fun toy to play with.

    That monitor had pretty terrible ghosting issues (it's VA instead of TN/IPS), that's why you see it at that price. Best site to check for monitor response time benchmarks is Tftcentral.co.uk The similar Z35 peaks at 51ms response time, which is astoundingly bad for a supposed ''gaming" monitor.

    Is the Democratic party still a relevant political party?

    Dems have won the popular vote 6 times out of 7 since '92 and have a much bigger core of sure "firewall" states. If they weren't so complacent and arrogant, they could have had the presidency on lockdown

    New cold war?

    I am not politicizing this, whether there was a Republican or Democrat administration in the US wouldn't have made much of a difference in the end. The Soviets had a huge military expenditure in relation to their GDP even before Reagan for many years and it was unsustainable for the long term...

    New cold war?

    The Soviet military budget was a huge percentage of their GDP back then, they just couldn't go on and on competing in the arms race without turning Soviet Union into a starved North Korea.

    You guys have it so good in the US, that thing costs almost double in Europe. We need a Newegg equivalent here that actually does some sales and shit, the various euro Amazons (apart from their great return policy) don't quite cut it for me from a price standpoint.

    If i were to make a mITX build, i would use that exact same case you picked(Define Nano S without the window). You can fit in there even bigger and better coolers (such as the Noctua NH-D15S), so those are worth considering. Or you can do water cooling too!

    Unless you are planning to use this as a weapon, i don't see how you need a bulky otterbox or even a screen protector for this. A simple case would suffice, we are not in 2012 anymore. Gorilla Glass 4 is scratch proof and you need to drop it face-down from some height for the screen to crack.

    It's currently not a noticeable upgrade at 1080p/60Hz, it's more of a futureproof overkill choice. A 1060 can run taxing games at 60fps fine at 1080p.
